playas - playas is not the best place for surfing but is ok, sometimes is really polluted, you can even taste it in the water, and sometmes is realy small, but it has clean big days and if you happen to be near the spot, its really grate

playas local - forget about the runoff that was back in the days, goverment do a lot for this beaches now at days.

i've been living here for 30 years and surfed most of my life in this waters and it aint bad, surf's good when the swell is right, the place by the white apartments is called O.T. beach, theres is also Matadero further south and Bardita downthere also. there are worst polluted spots in the U.S.

P.S. - on the opposite most southern end of Playas is a very groovy left, don't know it's name. A fun wave for us oldtimers.

Actually - Senor surfo 39 is correct. The water here is not as dirty as you might like to think. The Plant at Punta Bandera & SADM treat the water, it goes back into the ocean, but wayyyyy out then north, far beyond the breaks at Playas. the current then takes it North, where, ha ha on you guys, it ends up in Imperial Beach. So, a myth destroyed by the stroke of a pen. Actually, the worst pollution occurs at the State Park and the Sloughs. Whooooweee anybody ever do the Sloughs? And again, Senor was correct, yes, its polluted after a rain storm, but show me any beach anywhere on the coast that isn't after a storm. Whatever, you guys just stay away and we'll handle the waves.

- Very bold to go surf here with all the sewage and all. If you have a recent Hep A shot and want to save the gas needed to drive another 20km to BM's be my guest.
